Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, and several other Opposition leaders were detained by the Delhi Police during a sit-in protest outside Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence at Lok Kalyan Marg on Friday.
The protest was organised in response to the police action during the Sansad Chalo march. The Opposition leaders demanded the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging accountability over the issues raised during the demonstration.
Security was heightened in and around the Prime Minister's residence as police intervened to prevent the protesters from advancing further. The detained leaders were later taken away by police personnel, while the protest intensified the ongoing political confrontation between the Opposition and the Centre.
